Nick Thomas-Symonds: I should first say that I used to be a barrister before entering Parliament, and remain a non-practising member of Civitas Law in Cardiff.
	A year ago, the previous Lord Chancellor said these very reforms were both sustainable and essential. I thought that was completely wrong and I am delighted that the current Lord Chancellor agrees with me, but can the Minister tell us why the previous Lord Chancellor got so many things so badly wrong?
